Fall Into Sleep

To me all thoughts are empty.
To me I am not real.
To me everything is pointless.
If you are me, what do you feel?

For you everything is a joke.
You laugh at me, you smile.
You never see when I need you.
You won't listen for a while.

You really don't seem to get it.
What don't you understand?
One day there will be only air,
when you reach out for my hand.

Unable to hold me:
Alone, will you break?
You found that my smile wasn't real.
I hid behind the fake.

Now you're finding me:
The person you'll never know.
You'll take one step back,
and over edge you'll go.

You were all that kept me here.
And I am all that can keep you.
How will you respond to these words:
You and I are through?

I needed to be on my own.
With a little breathing room.
Now I'm not the one that's hurting;
That will be you soon.

I needed to feel supported.
Something you couldn't do.
Now it's my own fault.
I am able to be away, forever, from you.

I'll go on, living.
As I always did.
Because, unlike you,
I have more for which I live.

So I'll leave you here.
Here on this floor to weep.
I'll let you cry the tears you were too big to use,
and fall into my own sleep.
